Match abandoned due to rain.

Paarl Royals scored 131/4 in 15 overs.

It was a fantastic start to the innings for the visitors, as Jason Roy and Jos Buttler came out hammer and tongs to score the tournament's fastest team 50, and the hosts were in sixes and sevens, trying to figure out how to get the first wicket!

When they did get Buttler out, a lot of damage had already been done. Jason Roy continued in his merry way to get to an important half-century and contributions from Wihan Lubbe and Dane Vilas also came in handy. But with rain coming down and halting play after nine overs, things got just a bit more even with the home team coming back in the contest with some economical overs.

Donavon Ferreira was the best bowler on show for Faf du Plessis' team, picking up a wicket and giving away only 5 runs from his two overs.

In the end, David Miller was joined by Evan Jones with 5 overs to go, when the second rain break came calling. Sadly, not a ball could be bowled after that and the match got washed out, with both teams sharing points.

Paarl Royals now have 19 points from 9 games, whereas Joburg Super Kings have reached 18 points from 8 matches. While the former is second in the standings, the latter is currently third.

8:15 PM IST: Unfortunately, the match has been called off due to rain and bad ground conditions.

For all you Jason Roy fans out there.....

Just not the news we wanted to hear, it's looking bleak for the game to resume anytime soon but let's keep our fingers crossed!

The heavy rain at the Wanderers in Johannesburg has been replaced by a light drizzle 🌧️ but the damage might already have been done-the outfield is sodden with puddles and the cut off for a 5-0ver chase to start is 17:05 local time-less than an hour from now #SA20 #Joburg #JSKVPC pic.twitter.com/Z1WWRVlSqc

Our wait for the restart in Johannesburg continues, but in the meantime, do check out the numbers from the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, to get yourself going for the much awaited series, coming up!

We will lose overs now. The one hour buffer is a thing of the past, as far as this match is concerned, so, if and when the game restarts, the DLS method will come into the picture.

7:10 PM IST: There is no news coming in from The Wanderers at this stage. We will keep you posted, as and when there is something that comes up. Please stay with us.

As we wait for play to restart in Johannesburg, here is an interesting tweet, for all Indian Test cricket fans!

Oh no! Not again! The rain is back. The players are off the field and the covers are coming on to dress the entire square. It is teeming down at the moment.

Even though this over has gone for 15 runs, Joburg have managed to get the big wicket of Jason Roy. Now, the new batters have to get going quickly, and the bowlers have a chance of getting a few more wickets in the process.
